Great map

Thanks for the great map. By the way, please fix Suleiman Shah's tomb, there aren't Turkmens there+it's Münbiç non Membiç. Edit: Use English names instead Turkish maybe. Berkaysnklf kaynak olarak da bunu ekleyebilirsin. Beshogur (talk) 20:09, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

The map is incorrect with respect to the Manbij area, which in fact is Arab Syrian, Kurdish and Circassian, with only negligible Armenian and Turkmen minorities

The map is incorrect with respect to the Manbij area, which in fact is Arab Syrian, Kurdish and Circassian, with only negligible Armenian and Turkmen minorities. Leaving all the problems with "ethnic majority maps" in general aside, while most of this map is grosso modo in line with what I know on the topic, the depiction of the city of Manbij as "majority Turkmen" obviously is completely false. All sources give the ethnic composition of Manbij as around one third Arab Syrian and Arab, one third Circassian and one third Kurdish, with negligible minorities of Armenians and Turkmen. To underline my point, here is the Columbia University map which you yourself quote as your main source. It gives the whole Manbij area as majority mostly Kurdish and in some areas Circassian. Not Turkmen at all. However, the city of Manbij is clearly marked as allegedly "Turkmen majority" on your map, just as its suurroundings to the north. I spent one hour going through all of your sources. Not a single one makes such a claim. Please correct the map in this point, which you know is false, or it must be removed from articles. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 20:23, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
